Heres their list of the best CF players in the "modern era". Took into account hitting, fielding and speed.

Cant remember if #4 and #5 were what I listed or switched but either way, Edmonds was a big shock.

1. Mays
2. Cobb
3. Mantle
4. Speaker
5. Joe D.
6. Griffey
7.Snider
8.Edmonds
9.Puckett

1. Mays(3)
2. Cobb(1)
3. Mantle(5)
4. Speaker(2)
5. Joe D.(4)
6. Griffey(6)
7.Snider(8)
8.Edmonds(9)
9.Puckett(7)


That is how I rank the guys on this list, but I am sure we could find better players alltime than Snider and Edmonds! Speaker always gets underrated on these lists! He is the best defensive player in the history of the game, any position! And he had over 3000 hits. Speaker is a top 10 player of alltime.

Cobb is my #1. He is quite possibly the greatest hitter/player to ever live. Speaker is a strong #2 though. Mays is vastly overrated because of playing in NY. He was great, but alot of people say the best player ever?!?! That is crazy!
